Allow python3.12

Without these fixes, we get

Traceback (most recent call last):

when trying to run on noble. These changes seem to work fine on jammy as well

Pull request overview

This PR updates the virtualenv bootstrap and pinned Python dependencies to support Python 3.12 environments (e.g., Ubuntu Noble) where pkg_resources is no longer available by default.

Changes:

• Update venv.py preinstall bootstrap packages (pip/pip-tools) and add setuptools so pkg_resources is present.
• Refresh pinned transitive dependencies in requirements.txt to newer versions.

preinstall now includes a strict setuptools==82.0.0 pin, but the non-builtin-venv path later appends setuptools>=44,<45 for Python 2 compatibility. If that branch is hit, pip will see conflicting setuptools requirements and fail the install. Consider only pinning setuptools==… for the builtin venv (Python 3) path, and leaving the <45 constraint for the legacy virtualenv/Python2 path (or gate the pin by Python major version).

requirements.in still includes wheel==0.45.1 (catkin_virtualenv/requirements.in:5), but wheel is no longer present in the compiled requirements.txt. This makes the lock file inconsistent with its input and may drop an explicitly required dependency; please re-run the lock generation (pip-compile) so requirements.txt reflects requirements.in (or remove wheel from requirements.in if it’s no longer intended).
